Chameleon Club to welcome guitarist Steve Vai

Guitarist Steve Vai began playing at age 13, and his passion for music led him to Berklee College of Music and a position as a music transcriptionist for Frank Zappa. Vai would go on to join Zappa’s band in 1980. Springing from there to a solo career, Vai released his first album, “Flex-Able,” in 1984, following in 1990 with one of his most successful and acclaimed, “Passion and Warfare.”

A steady solo career, including winning three Grammy Awards, would continue for Vai in between collaborations with artists and groups such as David Lee Roth, Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne and frequent bandmate Frank Zappa. His latest album, “The Story of Light,” was released this month.

Considered a virtuoso by many guitar fans, Vai combines a classical style with a modern rock passion.
